Seeing life through rose-colored glasses

The artist's mural features joyful scenes such as children playing, a couple holding hands, and a grandfather with his great-grandchild, all of which exude positive energy through both the imagery and vibrant colors, particularly pink, which symbolizes happiness and calmness. While the images reflect themes of understanding, tolerance, inclusivity, and diversity, they also hold personal significance, being based on photos the artist took. These include moments with his son, his 99-year-old grandfather, and his children playing on a seesaw. The animals depicted pay homage to the nearby park and the Sonian Forest. The mural’s accessible style and attractive colors aim to introduce young people to art and spark a love for creativity.
